Jeff Bewkes, the Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Time Warner has stated that following a thorough review of the available options, the company has finally come to the conclusion that a separation will put both Time Warner as well as Time Inc. in better positions.

This spin off will enable Time Warner to concentrate on their television networks and production businesses pertaining to films and TV. Time Inc. on the other hand will have the advantage of being a standalone company and now will be able to get more natural stockholder base. As witnessed in previous spin offs, AOL and Time Warner Cable, the company is hopeful that the separation will be able to create additional value for the stockholders.

Sales at the retail chain as of the first full year of the turnaround saw a steep drop as customers failed to get used to the initial plan of Johnson to adopt everyday-low costs and shops within stores.

Analysts at Oppenheimer and Citigroup have downgraded their ratings on JC Penney’s stock and have cut their price targets as they are becoming less positive about the company’s turnaround in the upcoming term.

Interestingly, the retailer’s shares went up by 2.3% in Thursday after a three-day drop that wiped out about 1/5th of the stock’s value. New York Post has cited some anonymous sources in reporting that the struggling department store chain has lain off 1,500 merchandising positions as well as store-level department managers. A month back, it had fired 300 people from its headquarter in Texas. Around 19,000 workers have lost their job posts since CEO Ron Johnson came to the company in 2011.
